If you're looking to buy Rabbids 3D for your child, you won't go far wrong. A family friendly, slapstick game, Rabbids 3D sees everyone's favourite Rabbity things (sorry, Max) travelling back through four periods of time in a platforming adventure. With 40 levels on offer, there's plenty of longevity here, with the Time Attack and Challenge modes encouraging you to play through the levels even more, as you attempt to finish them within a certain time limit, or by collecting everything the level has to offer.

There's a decent amount of variety here to stop kids getting bored, and the traditional Rabbidy humour is delivered in spades. The levels themselves are pretty intelligent, too, requiring a good deal of thought in order to complete them, yet alone get everything that's available. With plenty of puzzles to solve, it's a game that'll get your child's brain working, at the same time as them having fun - and that's never a bad thing.

Mature Content

Rabbids 3D is rated a 7+ by PEGI thanks to non-realistic, cartoon, slapstick violence, which seems a bit heavy handed, to us. What violence there is isn't actually that violent at all - in fact, it's debatable as to whether the foot/hand/head your Rabbid "thwacks" with actually makes contact at all, due to the large cloud that surrounds it when you try to thwack an enemy. There's very, very little in here that could be classed as violence - the only thing that may make younger children jump is that when you die, your Rabbid gets flung at the screen, and splats against it, while appearing to crack the glass.

Family Values

Sadly, there's no multiplayer mode in Rabbids 3D (it's about the only thing they could have added that'd improve it). That said, with a younger child, you may find yourself being called on to explain what certain things mean, as although there's very little writing in the game, it does make a habit of giving you an on-screen pop-up, that'll tell you exactly what to do whenever you approach something that uses a new skill, such as lifting a block, or thwacking a Rabbid. It's only a sentence or two, though, so if anything, it could be a great starting base for a child just learning to read.
